Hello Rene, thanks for reaching out. It is pretty typical for RV manufacturers to use axles that are not rated for the full GVWR. They say this is because 10%-15% of the camper weight is on the hitch instead of the axles. They will put the bare…
Explore trailer axles with an 80-inch spring center, ideal for those looking to upgrade or replace their current setup. This specification ensures a precise fit for trailers requiring this specific measurement, enhancing stability and performance.
While most installations are trouble-free, some have encountered issues like incorrect spring perch locations or missing components like castle nuts. It's important to double-check all parts upon delivery and ensure compatibility with your trailer's existing setup.
This axle size ensures proper alignment and weight distribution, crucial for safe towing. It enhances the trailer's handling and reduces wear on tires and suspension components, making it a reliable choice for long hauls and heavy-duty use.
Installation is generally straightforward, especially with pre-greased components and pre-wired brakes. Many find the process smooth, though some adjustments, like brake shoe alignment, might be necessary. Having the right tools and following instructional videos can make the process even easier.
An 80-inch spring center axle provides a perfect fit for trailers needing this specific width, ensuring optimal weight distribution and stability. This setup is crucial for maintaining the trailer's balance and performance, especially when carrying heavy loads over long distances.
Consider the axle's load capacity to match your trailer's frame rating. Ensure all components, like bearings and backing plates, are included and compatible. Upgrading to an EZ lube option can also enhance maintenance ease, prolonging the axle's lifespan.
